Once your child is here, you wouldn't trade them for all of the alone time in the world. You want to take your baby with you everywhere you go. While it temporarily closes some doors, it opens new and even more exciting new ones. <br /><br />Best wishes and loads of prayers with this next cycle. I'm praying this is the one!Saigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09274842769323024702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998353539575924667.post-38444906609869598602010-01-14T22:03:12.263-06:002010-01-14T22:03:12.263-06:00Whenever I start to feel sorry for myself about my...Whenever I start to feel sorry for myself about my petty problems I look to you and find strength.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998353539575924667.post-52590806432620217352010-01-13T22:02:28.106-06:002010-01-13T22:02:28.106-06:00Welcome back.

I'm happy to hear you've been feeling better and happier, and that you had a great holiday as well.<br /><br />Your feelings are totally normal, it's the fight or flight response I believe and when you worry about what kind of parent you'll be, you wonder if you should go there at all? Having fears is what makes you a good parent, one who thinks they know it all and has nothing to be fearful of usually end up with issues and problems in the end.<br /><br />Hang in there, FET is just around the corner and we want to hear good...no great news!!!<br /><br />Good luck and keep those spirits up, it's great to hear your feeling recharged!MyLifeMyWorldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17054054584943097332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998353539575924667.post-11842759118616967032010-01-13T12:56:53.800-06:002010-01-13T12:56:53.800-06:00I think it's always so scary when we embark in...I think it's always so scary when we embark into THE UNKNOWN. Our brains start composing these scary, dreadful story lines (at least mine does!), and we get stuck in the worry. But you know what? The story rarely unfolds as we've imagined. =)<br /><br />You and hubs will still have so many adventures together! And these adventures are going to be made even sweeter when they involve your sweet baby.<br /><br />It's almost transfer time, and I'm getting super stoked for the creation of the Jaymee Baby. =)Meg.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00362604475161394470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998353539575924667.post-82334574105791353362010-01-13T00:09:55.738-06:002010-01-13T00:09:55.738-06:00Glad to hear you had a great holiday season and th...Glad to hear you had a great holiday season and the trip sounds amazing.<br /><br />I am with MNjen, "priorities shift but you will remain "YOU".<br /><br />Good LuckSoralishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10134991337688208295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998353539575924667.post-63879412253453058472010-01-12T17:31:32.700-06:002010-01-12T17:31:32.700-06:00Don't be too worried about missing out on fun ...Don't be too worried about missing out on fun couple time. Chris and I still go out til 2am sometimes when our friend babysits the boys (which really means just sitting here while the boys sleep!). You wont lose yourselves when you become parents.

The worry, the fear, the guilt...the wonder of what we have to "give up" or change in our married/couples life to become parents even though we desperately want to become parents. It's mind-boggling, isn't it? :)<br /><br />I think that what one of the PP says is true...it's normal but it sure does keep me up at night sometimes. ;) I think you're going to be fine. We don't know what adjustments and changes to make sometimes until we're right in the situation that calls for the change. And just think of all the cool things that you can do as a family that you might not have gotten to experience otherwise. You're gonna be a GREAT mom...just wait and see! :)Kellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15049992666664283399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998353539575924667.post-50607415261953730292010-01-12T06:43:42.146-06:002010-01-12T06:43:42.146-06:00there's nothing i can say you don't alread...there's nothing i can say you don't already know. i love you. you will be amazing.. you ARE amazing. plus helo, baby and i will babysit. :)athenahttp://mystuffandthings.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998353539575924667.post-43983737322086736702010-01-12T02:36:50.214-06:002010-01-12T02:36:50.214-06:00Judging from this post, you will be a superb mom, ...Judging from this post, you will be a superb mom, with heaps of insight into the world.
